At least they are talking, even if its only for two more weeks.

Absolutely. Sure wouldn't hurt the sport if CH somehow won the Preakness, but I will definitely try to make $$ beating him.

Isn’t it virtually a lock that he won’t be the favorite?

I don't think Country House is running in the Preakness. Unless something changed in the last few hours, it looks like neither Country House nor Maximum Security are running in the Preakness. I think Mott's plan is to skip the Preakness and run in the Belmont, from what he said yesterday.

Edit. Now it looks like Mott is leaning toward running Country House in the Preakness.
